Olivia Rogers opens up on depression, anxiety after marriage split

Olivia Rogers has opened up on the depression and anxiety she felt after her marriage breakdown went public last year.

Olivia Rogers has shared more detail about her marriage breakdown, but says she will maintain boundaries to protect herself and others.

The former Miss Universe Australia has admitted she was depressed and anxious last year after splitting with Justin McKeone.

“I truly am happy right now, I feel a sense of calm and I feel content,’’ Rogers wrote in an Instagram Q&A on Tuesday.

“I don’t think I realised just how depressed and anxious I was last year when I was in it, but now that the dust has settled, I feel like this fog has lifted and I feel so much better.

“It’s probably the first time that I’ve been single and I’ve really taken the time to work on myself and focus on what I actually want & need in my life.”

Rogers and her ex Justin McKeone separated after seven months of marriage. She admitted to dealing with raw emotions after the shock split last October.

She was inundated with questions from people wanting her to elaborate on the reasons why she decided to separate.

“I totally understand the curiosity here, and I am not offended when people ask,’’ she wrote.

“However … this is tricky to navigate as the relationship breakdown involves two of us.

“Yes I share a lot online, but I have also always kept boundaries around certain topics.

“As much as I feel like sharing more about my experience could help other people, I also need to protect myself and other people in my life so I will continue to share only what I feel comfortable with and in ways I feel comfortable do so. I hope you can understand that.”

Rogers will live her best single life with a trip to Paris at the end of this month with her friend, celebrity stylist Paul Versace.
